    That under your name is your badge! :)
    Oh, and also, have fun with the color of your username! As Brandon told you, us supporters now have the capability to do this.

    For a dark blue, enter #000088 or #008.

    Experiment with colors like this: 0..9 A..F is a hexadecimal (base 16) digit (A..F are used for 10..15). So, 00..FF are values from 0..255. In a 6-digit group for color, the first part is the red intensity, the middle part is the green intensity and the latter part is the blue intensity. That's why the pattern is also called #RRGGBB (short form #RGB).

    So ... #FF0000 is full-on red, #00FF00 is green, and #0000FF is blue.

    #000088 is blue with half intensity.

    For RGB colors, you can use subtractive color mixing (as it is used with light).

    So, #FFFF00 is yellow, #FF8800 is orange, #00FFFF is cyan, #FF00FF is magenta, and so on.

    Browns have a higher red intensity than green, and a lower blue intensity than green. So #886644 should look like brown.

    To get purple instead of magenta, use more blue, to get pink, use more red.

    It's a lot of fun to experiment with colors. :)

    No problem at all
    I just stumbled in it & since it shows an example for font & background, it's prefect for us.
    We may edit the edit profile section & add the link or just copy the generator & host it ourselves.
